Barack Obama, who is seeking the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination, has been forced to defend some curious stock purchases in companies that were backed by some of his top political donors.
Barack Hussein Obama said he was unaware of any conflict.
In reality, besides buying share in firms backed by political donors, he made a $5,000 investment in a biotech company that was developing a drug to combat avian flu, a cause Obama quickly took up in Congress just after investing in the stock. Is that the kind of person we want in the White House?
The Clinton’s could push a story like this aside and the press would act like it never happened. Obama does not have that much power. Not yet anyway.
Speaking of the Clinton’s, were they the ones who leaked this story?
